What the June 8, 2026 windstorm did near Smolan
On June 8, 2026, the National Weather Service in Wichita recorded a gust of 98 mph near Smolan as the storm that produced 113 mph at Salina Airport crossed the county. See the NWS summary of the June 8 damaging winds for the readings. A gust like that does more than knock down trees. It cracks limbs, loosens root systems and splits forks in trees that look fine from the road, so properties around Smolan can have damaged trees that are still standing.
Trees and conditions around Smolan
Rural properties near Smolan often have things in-town lots do not: field windbreaks, long driveways, old farmstead trees and shelterbelts planted decades ago. Windbreaks of cedar, Osage orange and elm do a lot of work, but aging rows lose limbs and whole trees over time, and a line of dead trees is both a hazard and a gap in the protection. Large old cottonwoods and silver maples around yards and creeks add to the load. Walk your property after any big wind and look up.
